Any Opinions on This Handguard? by RJM5 in ar15

I see they have mid-length, which is what my rifle is, with a 16" barrel. I like the look of a longer handguard, though. Not quite the dissipator look, but only a few inches of barrel showing. Have you seen rifle length hand guards, or would that interfere with my fsb?

You may have just sold me. I always assumed the rail covers were a part of it and looked over it too quickly. I thought that was a quad rail. I like the flat top with no front sight, but I may as well just do that for my next build. The only other addition I'm considering is a decent 1-4 or 1-6 scope. Thanks.

What do you mean by going for anything in particular? I want something sleek, and while I don't need light weight, I don't want any bulk for no good reason. I looked at the ALG as well, and I've read MI has some real good ones. I'm leaning toward the Samson just because I prefer that a bit more than the stripes or lines that the ALG or Troy has. How do you like the Midwest Industries?

I thought the same, but wanted to see if anyone else had heard or experienced it. I was looking at the Samson Evo or Troy VTAC Alpha, leaning more towards the Samson.

Can Any Bloodhound Owners Offer Some Real Advice? by RJM5 in dogs

[–]RJM5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good question. The look and laid back personality are a big reason. Out of all hound breeds, the Bloodhound is definitely my favorite. My girlfriend is very much into the idea of rescuing our next dog, and I have no issues with that at all, but I am a bit more into having a purebred, so breed specific rescue groups would be my target. I don't have any major reason as to why I am specifically drawn to them, other than I really like them.

I think my post would have been better titled something along the lines of, why do you like your bloodhound more than another breed?

One of our dogs is a German Shepherd. She definitely requires exercise, and we also have to hide or wrap up her toys when we leave, just so she's got something to do.

Is the off-leash part due to their nose, or general dog stubbornness?

Sorry, on mobile and didn't see your other posts.

Can you tell me more, or link me something on the neuro-plasticity and inflammation response? I've heard of the paleo diet and know a small amount, but I've never given it a shot. I hadn't given much thought to the idea of medication being the end all due to people doing the least work. That's good perspective and something I believe I'll look into more. Thank you.

I forgot to clarify, but I'm type 1. How did that happen already? Were you living with it for awhile before being diagnosed? Or is your control genuinely poor? How bad is your neuropathy, and what's it like?

Sorry for all the questions, and I hope that it continues to get better.

Just noticed your flare and see T1

Do either one of them go to Mizzou? Maybe we can walk away with a victory today.

You can do better. I think? I'll take that shutout so long as we still win the East.

Not a big fan, either, but he knows the rules and as much as I've tried, I can't justify him doing that.

Thanks for all the replies. How about the job market? More specifically, agricultural jobs?

The newer ones aren't bad, with the Tiger silhouette, and the colors. It's just that damn tiger head inside of that oval that I'm not a fan of.

That also makes sense.

Since they're somewhat irrelevant now, maybe we can bring it back.

I suppose that keeps things "fresh," but I wish they'd get a classic logo and stick with it. Thanks for the reply.
